It has a black matte anodized aluminum body that makes it the lightest weight Perfect cigar cutter.

The Family Reserve cigars were created with ten year old tobacco to commemorate the 45th anniversary of Padrón Cigars. José Orlando Padrón came to the United States from Cuba in the early 1960s with nothing more than a few hundred dollars and the burning desire to handmake cigars that tasted as good as the ones he smoked in Cuba.

The image of a hammer on this special release represents a precious gift given to him by a friend when he was virtually penniless. The hammer allowed him to make a living as a carpenter. He saved his money to form a small cigar company in Little Havana. It was the start of Padron cigars, now considered one of the premier cigar makers of the world.
